What band do we hate the most?
Nov 21^st, 2011 at 8:57pm

I was having a debate at the last gig with a well informed Stones fan about what band the average Stones fan hates the most. I argued for the Eagles .... and I am staunch in my opinions....

anyhoo, i thought it was an interesting discussion and promised to bring it up here. any thoughts? what names have i forgotten? Seems the Eagles and Bon Jovi get a lot of negative press round here...but who else do we despise?

Hating is a waste of time. Even The Eagles have a couple of good songs ("My Man" -- it's about Gram Parsons). I say: let everybody have a chance, and let the fanboys out.

Insert image regarding haters hating hate.

But, if hating is needed, I think that Julia Roberts and Adam Sandlers are evil. I know that this is about musical rock and roll bands, but I just wanted you to know that I fucking hate Julia Roberts and Adam Sandler movies. And that Aerosmith blows.

nickelback? well, that goes without saying. i'm talking about bands that have been around awhile, not today's passing fancy.

Okay, I'll admitt it! I like that Coldplay song, "Viva la Vida".

Especially, the beginning, "I used to rule the world . . ."

Don't get me wrong, the Stones are my favorite band, but there is a lot of other good music out there too.

I love the BeeGees! Especially, that song, "How Deep Is Your Love"

All bands named solely after cities/states/countries/continents/planets are shit.

Can you honestly think of any that aren't?
